Wonton tacos
Indiana J.

The food here is pricey and not good. The fish in the stuffed avocado was way too lemony. The avocado itself was hard. The rope vieja was underseasoned. The wonton tacos were too sweet. The expresso martinis were bitter. The service was okay. Waiter was friendly. The rooftop is kinda small and at night the view is dark so it doesn't add to the experience.

We decided to visit Eter to celebrate a friend's birthday. It was 20mins from our hotel which was interesting with traffic. Reservation is required. Checkin is required at the front desk prior to getting on the elevator to the restaurant. The reservations were limited online but it wasn't very many people there when we arrive. Parking: available in the lot under the building. Be sure to drive slow if you will miss the turn. Service: 4/5 the waiter gave great feedback on the menu. We waited around 25mins for the food. I noticed maybe 2 or 3 waiters so the service Ambiance: it was surprisingly quiet for a restaurant. Intimate setting, nice for a date nice or nice dinner. Order: Seafood Pasta- 4/5 tasty with plenty of of seafood Salmon- 3:5 it was flavorful but I've had better. It was just alright in my opinion. Overall, I give my experience a 3.5.

Good food, disappointing service and billing practices. I visited this restaurant with a friend, and while the food was genuinely good, the service experience left us feeling disappointed--and frankly, taken advantage of. I was deciding between the lobster risotto ($45) and the seafood fettuccine ($34) and asked our waiter, Orlando, if I could substitute the pasta in the fettuccine with risotto instead. He said "Absolutely, we can do that"--no mention of any upcharges. What arrived was a risotto dish with the lobster and seafood typically included in the fettuccine. Tasty, yes--but I was shocked when the bill came. I was charged the full $45 for the lobster risotto plus add-ons for every other seafood item: * $14 for shrimp * $12 for mussels (even though half didn't open) * $10 for calamari * $14 for scallops All added without any explanation or warning. To make matters worse, a dessert was mistakenly placed on our table by a trainee and later charged to us--despite not ordering it. Thankfully, that was eventually removed. When I expressed concern about the unexpected charges, Orlando told us he spoke to the manager, but "there was nothing they could do." I asked to speak to the manager, he was more understanding and removed one seafood add-on--but the final cost was still far more than expected. In fact, I would have gotten more food for less money by just ordering both dishes separately. It felt like an upsell trap, and we left feeling taken advantage of. If you choose to dine here, ask for clarity up front on any substitutions or changes--or you may get stuck with a surprise bill like I did.

Chicken Croquettes

Absolutely the best rooftop venue in San Juan, PR. Stunning view and even better cuisine AND service makes Eter a must for me every visit to PR! Staff of Rock Stars! Nice to find a place where the entire staff is on point, all the time!

Beautiful rooftop restaurant. Miguel the GM was just a pleasure, so inviting and friendly. Orlando was our server. He was professional, informative and sweet. However, there were major snafus with our service. We sat down at about 7:35pm, had drinks and appetizers and then waited two more hours for our entrees. We didn't receive them until 10:15pm. I mean, can you imagine a wait like this?? There were apologies and we did get a couple bottles of rose champagne for the table, but this was pretty outrageous and it impacted our plans for the night. We were to go out afterwards but after being at the restaurant 3+ hours, we decided to just head back to our air bnb. As for the food and drinks, I had the guavalicious cocktail. It was so good, much like a rum punch with guava. I had the tamarind ribs with sweet plantains plus a Caesar salad. I split this with my sister's beef tenderloin over gnocchi. The meats were prepared well. Both were tender and flavorful. The gnocchi lacked seasoning for me. The plantains were delicious, though. My friends enjoyed their steaks. One friend ordered the red snapper, it lacked seasoning. Another friend loved her lobster pasta. All in all, the food delivered but the wait for dinner was horrific. We found out later that our server thought he ordered our entrees but didn't. People make mistakes but it really ruined our night. It should have resulted in a discount. We were initially offered a free bottle of water for the table until I didn't need more water. That was a major service miss.

I love rooftop bars and was so looking forward to this evening with 4 friends at Eter, had read that it had the best views in San Juan. Alas, the views were not good (very industrial area) and there was a distinct odor of exhaust fumes that kind of ruined our appetites and the atmosphere. The food was okay - shrimp cocktail was undercooked, some items needed salt/seasoning. On the plus side - the staff was wonderful. Sunny and Leslye were upbeat & personable as our hosts, and our server Sebastian was top notch. This review was no reflection on them. The drinks and service were great!

I went there to drink cocktails for my birthday. The cocktails were delicious. The service was great! Recommend!

Tenderloin 8oz over Gnocchi with Alfredo and Meat Sweet Sauce

The view and vibes were nice when we first arrived but the wait time was crazy. Waited an hour for appetizers and another for main course just to be wrong. You'd also think a rooftop restaurant knows how to handle rain but they waited 15 min before giving us hand held umbrellas. They forgot one of my group member's drinks, messed up an order, and completely forgot mine. The steaks we received were lukewarm at best and my food looked nothing like the picture on the menu. I ordered the gnocchi with steak and the gnocchi was rock hard and dry. It also had mushroom inside which was never advertised!!?? Overall, it was gross and I couldn't even eat it. At least the waiter and supervisor offered 2 free drinks and a discount.

Everything was amazing! The view, the food, the service. Will definitely be back next time I'm in PR!

This is not salmon. It's a dried piece of chicken With no seasoning.

Reviews don't lie and I knew this going in so I can't be upset. Don't do it. Avoid this spot at all cost. The view sucks, and there pool is the size of my shower. when you do get your food (2hrs later)it's not even edible and the price ... no way. Haven't seen a place charge me two types of taxes. One for the food and the other liquor. Hard hard pass.

It doesn't open until the later afternoon during the week. They do have brunch options on weekends I recommend making a reservation especially for the evening. They close early on the evenings it's not open all night long so plan your reservation accordingly. The restaurant is located on a rooftop lounge and it is beautiful and lovely. 360 views of the city really capture the beauty of Puerto Rico. The services is fine, I did not try the food, their drinks are okay, I should've taken a picture but I was with the group of people and I pretty much just forgot. Pay attention to the weight limit on the elevator there shouldn't be more than four people we had six people in our elevator and it actually started making noise and sounded like it was struggling as it got to the top kind of scary for a second. This is where he put your makeup on curl your hair and look beautiful type of night . This is where you want to take those Instagram pictures. If I ever come back this will be a must stop. Beautiful place

Poor review One of the worst dining experiences that I've had my entire time on this island and I've been coming back for over 5 years. I'm well aware of what fresh cuisine should taste like as I frequently visit five star establishments, this was not it . When I arrive for my reservation, I was greeted by no one. I then proceeded to sit myself watch two other guest, be seated and receive water before I have even received anything. Then after pointing out to what I later found was not the manager Jose that no one has seen me or greeted me. I stated that I would like a water. I still wasn't given one. Jose also told me he was the manager when I asked to speak with the manager. The girl at the bar was the most friendly part of this whole experience. Then when my omelette came out with cheese that wasn't even melted, that was the end of this experience and I knew I needed to get my check and leave. So for the nightlife, I can understand why this would be a popular night spot with all of the lights in the view, but for brunch, it was abysmal. I'm going to leave pictures of the food because I want someone else to judge whether I'm just being super picky, but I've seen better omelettes at IHOP. Also as nice as the bartender was her two drinks weren't even strong but they were tasty. I definitely give this place 1 out of 10, and the 1 is for the view. Of note: when I mentioned to the person that told me they were the manager Jose, that I was unhappy with the omelet his response was not to remake it to my liking. His response was well we still have to charge you. I also booked my dining under open table with a reservation. He cancelled my reservation in the app so I couldn't write a review on the open table app. This manger and establishment is slimey. Don't spend your money there!!! The actual manager Miguel stands behind this horrible behavior.

Filet Mignon Steak Taquitos on Crispy Dumpling Shell
Latrale W.

This place came highly recommended and I concur. First you must have a reservation for this place. They do have valet parking for $7. Not sure if there is other parking, we didn't look. The view was great, being able to see the city. Our waiter, Leonardo was amazing and not only gave great food recommendations, but also places to go after dinner. Dinner and drinks themselves were delicious. We had two appetizers, Chicken Fricassee Croquettes and Filet Mignon Steak Taquitos on Crispy Dumpling Shell that we really liked, the crispy dumplings we ordered seconds of. Of the main courses, I will say the risotto was a little salty and the salmon was a bit dry. Can be pricey, so be ready to spend. Food and Drinks: Chicken Fricassee Croquettes, Filet Mignon Steak Taquitos on Crispy Dumpling Shell, Lobster Risotto, Seafood Fettuccine Pasta With Rose Sauce, Fresh Salmon with sides, Stuffed Mofongo, Pineapple Breeze, Rooftop Reserve, Pima Colada

Love-Love-Love this place!…read more I was geeked to go here because for one I was on vacation on a beautiful island with my beautiful woman and two they were right down the street from where we were staying. Upon entering you are welcomed by a set of stairs that lead you to an open floor plan that is decorated simple yet somewhat of a beach theme. There wasn't any employees anywhere to be seen except the patrons enjoying themselves so we were somewhat confused on what to do so we walked over to the register and were greeted by a gentleman from the back. He said we could sit anywhere we'd like and he'd come and explain how things work. He explained to us that they use a wristband and the taps have a sensor and we scan our wristband and it measures how much we get each time and we are billed by the ounces we pour; what a great concept. We enjoyed many of their beers, each one just as great as the last. My personal favorite was the peanut butter porter, delish! The ordering for the food is by QR code which I hate, but it is what it is. I feel like if you're paying for food and giving a tip you should at least bare minimum have someone taking your order and tending to your needs. We ordered: Fish tacos 5/5 Croquettes 5/5 The one employee who was working was kind and courteous and great, so we left him a nice tip on our beer and food, which were separate bills. We will see you again the next time we are on the island. I hope you enjoy it as much as we did. Thanks again :)

We were warmly greeted. The server admitted he was new. He was adorable…read more There was four in our party. We sat outdoors. We chose some wine and local beer to start. It's kind of a small portion/share-sy type of place. I was dying for the lobster cakes. Those arrived 1st. 2 big cakes divided by 4. Yum. The escargot was kind of a disappointment. It was in a white cheese sauce. It was still devoured by the gang. The steak was cooked medium and sliced up to share. It was excellent. Probably the best thing on the table. Two kinds of soft tacos arrived, pork and fish. The fish tacos stole the show!! The tuna pika wantons were scrumptious. Our server recommended them and I'm sure glad he did. The bar b q wings were also tasty and gobbled up in no time. Some greens and onions adorned the plates, but we were a little weak on the veg. This was one of the best restaurants I've been to in Puerto Rico . Not fancy!! Just good food and pleasant service with no loud music blasting your head off. (Don't go if the smell of cannabis offends you.)

I want to inform you of the disappointment me and my family felt on Wednesday, October 19, 2022…read more We came from California on holiday to San Juan Puerto Rico and wanted to enjoy the food. We made reservations for 7:00 pm through OpenTable. Was sent several reminders and confirmed that I will be there. Took a Uber to the location to find out the restaurant em was dark and closed. But did see a guy inside. I called, no answer. This was a huge inconvenience and let down. Never again!
